If you like what you read here, there\u2019s plenty more to check out in the guide!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-start-saving-now\">Start Saving Now<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s never too early to learn how to save more money. You have to decide on a percentage\u2014such as 10%, 15%, or 25%\u2014of your monthly income to save, and \u201cpay yourself\u201d by setting that aside before paying any other bills or other expenses. If you don\u2019t commit to saving a set amount, it\u2019s all too easy to spend it without thinking. This is the principle with which you\u2019ll start investing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Robbins also recommends saving up an emergency fund before you start investing. To do this, aim to accumulate enough money to cover your basic expenses for at least six to 12 months. (Shortform note: In <a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/i-will-teach-you-to-be-rich\"><em>I Will Teach You to Be Rich<\/em><\/a>, Ramit Sethi suggests<a href=\"https:\/\/shortform.com\/app\/book\/i-will-teach-you-to-be-rich\/chapter-8#emergencies\"> leaning on your family to help with emergency funds<\/a> if yours dwindle too quickly. Alternatively, you can withdraw the principal from your investments, or use a credit card as a last resort.)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll reach your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/goals-change\/\">financial goals<\/a> more quickly by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/spend-less-and-save-more\/\">saving more and spending less<\/a>. The more you save to invest, the faster your investments can compound. Robbins provides several ways to accelerate your savings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Accelerator #1: Put away more money each month.<\/strong> Robbins recommends doing this by living at or below your means. To cut down on unnecessary costs, make a list of all your expenses and consider which you could reduce or remove. For example, $4 saved daily from a bagel shop habit would compound to roughly $53,000 if invested at 6% returns for 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Shortform note: Jacob Lund Fisker of <a href=\"https:\/\/earlyretirementextreme.com\/\"><em>Early Retirement Extreme<\/em><\/a><em> <\/em>suggests saving more money than most by living on as little as possible. While he acknowledges that you should consider your happiness when changing your lifestyle, he also encourages <a href=\"https:\/\/earlyretirementextreme.com\/we-are-going-to-cut-our-expenses-in-half.html\">trying to live with very little<\/a>\u2014for example, you might replace your car with an electric bicycle, downsize to a cheap apartment, or learn skills like home repair that enable you to cut costs even further. By doing this, he once reached an 85% monthly savings rate.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Accelerator #2: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-increase-your-earnings\/\">Increase your earnings<\/a> by becoming a more valuable individual.<\/strong> Robbins explains that we\u2019re rewarded for the value that we bring to the market. So if you develop in-demand skills, especially creative thinking and entrepreneurial drive, you can become more valuable in your workplace and secure higher pay. You can also earn more by starting your own business.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Accelerator #3: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/how-to-pay-less-in-taxes\/\">Pay less in taxes<\/a> and fees.<\/strong> Robbins recommends staying away from high-fee 401(k)s and other high-fee mutual funds when learning how to save more money. Even a 3% annual fee can significantly hinder your compounding interest, so choose low-fee investments instead. In addition, consider moving: Several U.S. states have no income tax, while living abroad is often cheaper and can enrich your life.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-avoid-pitfalls\">Avoid Pitfalls<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, <strong>avoid pitfalls that derail your progress<\/strong> when saving up money. Robbins explains there are unsavory players who will take advantage of you to line their own pockets. In general, avoid getting sucked into the marketing hype that encourages you to buy into the newest, \u201chottest,\u201d investments. These mainly profit the brokers, not the investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pitfall #1: Misleading Returns<\/strong>\u2014brokers\/firms advertise average annual returns based on a lump sum investment compounded annually. Average returns usually look better on paper, but what you get are actual returns, which depend on your monthly contributions and variation in the market. Take it as a red flag if a firm tries to sell you on average returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pitfall #2: Disadvantageous Products<\/strong>\u2014Robbins explains that many financial products have high fees or disadvantageous terms. In general, avoid any fees over 1% annually. As a rule, avoid mutual funds and invest in low-cost index funds instead. Mutual funds depend on active managers\u201496% of whom lose to the market over the long term\u2014while index funds mimic the overall growth of the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve invested in a 401(k), annuity, or target-date fund, check whether you\u2019re paying more in fees than you need to be. Many 401(k)s and annuities invest through high-fee mutual funds with poor returns and have low-fee alternatives. Many target-date funds\u2014a mutual fund meant to become more conservatively invested as you age\u2014don\u2019t follow the advertised adjustment curve and do not guarantee good returns.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pitfall #3: Self-Interested Brokers<\/strong>\u2014Robbins explains that brokers have no legal obligation to put <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/what-are-you-curious-about\/\">your interests<\/a> first. Because they work for commissions, they have an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/what-is-incentive-meaning-and-definition-economics\/\">incentive<\/a> to sell you more expensive services\u2014and they often get poor returns while charging you high fees. If they lose, you take the loss. If they win, they profit from your risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Pitfall #4: Unpredictable Tax Rates<\/strong>\u2014when investments yield income, you must pay tax on that income. This means whenever you withdraw funds from an investment, as you would in retirement, you pay income tax, which halts your progress in saving more money than spending it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While we can\u2019t predict future tax rates, Robbins suggests that they may continue to increase and it&#8217;ll become harder to save more money then. To avoid paying out higher taxes on your investments, use a Roth IRA and a Roth 401(k). Unlike normal retirement accounts, Roth accounts allow you to pay tax upfront. Each time you contribute, you\u2019ll pay tax\u2014but when you later withdraw funds, when the rate may be higher, you don\u2019t have to pay it again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you want to know how to save more money?
